Moral science has two halves. There are the implications of thinking straight about fact and value (ideal theory) and there are the implications of not thinking straight. Ideal theory is the foundation, error theory the daily battle.

Another stealth jihadist plants another evil hidden Islamic message

What could be as evil as sneaking a memorial to the 9/11 terrorists onto the Flight 93 crash site? How about sneaking a hidden message of Islamic indoctrination into the soundtrack of an adorable baby doll, repeated every 30 seconds to thousands of 2-5 year old girls without parental knowledge?

If you haven’t heard it before, check out this AP video from October:

If Mattel wants to sell a doll that Muslim parents can use to brainwash their own toddlers, they need to label the doll as Islamic. Instead, Mattel has been engaged in outright cover-up for three months now, claiming that they “did a lot of tests” and found that the doll “just coos and says ‘mama’.”

Liars. If they even listened to the sound track they are fully aware that the suspicious segment is completely unlike the rest of the recording. In contrast to the inarticulate coos and burbles of the otherwise quite compelling baby sounds, the offending part is very clearly a sentence, almost staccato in its articulation.

The AP video above only contains the offending sentence itself. Here is the full sound track (five inserted indoctrinations in 2 minutes):

How many thousands of two year old girls are right now having their hearts opened by this doll’s repeated love cries, only to have a jihadist jab in his poison needle a hundred times an hour? This is the Islam of al Qaeda: a self proclaimed religion of deceit, using deceit to snake its tendrils around the most vulnerable members of our society.

Release the uncompressed audio file

Mattel’s claim that the injected sentence contains no Islamic message is just as fraudulent as its claim that there is no sentence. Here is a slowed down version of the sound-track:

The exact intonation is either “Islam is the light,” or “Iglam is the light.” Since "iglam" is not a word, and since the full segment is clearly spoken as a sentence, the intended word has to be Islam.

Mattel says that the doll’s audio “may be imprecise or distorted” because “the original sound track is compressed.” So why don’t they release the uncompressed file?

No one is hearing things that are not there. Mattel suggests that people are being influenced by “the power of suggestion,” but we can test that hypothesis.

If people can hear whatever they want, then they should also be able to hear a superficially similar Christian message: “Aslan is the light.” Yet even in compressed form, the recording very clearly does NOT say Aslan. The vowels and consonants are distinct. Mattel is in effect denying that there is such a thing as language.

This too is very similar to the Memorial Project. Defenders of the giant Mecca-oriented crescent fantasize in the newspaper that anyone can see Mecca-oriented crescents wherever they want, if they just look for them. No. The only reason anyone can see a half-mile wide Mecca-oriented crescent in the Crescent of Embrace memorial to Flight 93 is because architect Paul Murdoch put one there.

Mattel needs to conduct a real investigation and it needs to be transparent

Why should anyone ever buy a Mattel toy again when Mattel's response to clear evidence that their toys are being used in a plot against children is an obviously dishonest cover up? It would make a lot more sense, if they want to stay in business, to conduct a thorough and transparent investigation of how the clearly out-of-place and apparently subversive segment of the sound track got included. The forensic history is on their hard drives. Mattel should uncover the jihadist plotters in their employ, or in the employ of their sub-contractors, then refer them to the FBI and sue them for fraud.

There is even reason to think that the plot goes beyond just the sound track, and involves the entire the Cuddle and Coo doll project. According to the Muslim ex-Marine who blogs as 5-Pillar Column, Mattel's doll is also wearing a "hijab" (used by fundamentalist Muslim women to hide their hair).

Like the Islamic symbol shapes in the Flight 93 memorial, this is something that western society is not attuned to, so we don’t notice it, but Muslims immediately do. That doll has its hair covered:

5 Pillar speculates that it is the hijab that is causing "bigots" to take offense, but he seems to be the first one to have noticed that the doll can be seen as wearing a hijab.

Some versions of the doll show a wisp of hair, as Sharia law allows for girls, but all have the look of a proper hijab.

By itself, the possible hijab would be nothing, but together with the clearly articulated message of Islamic indoctrination, it suggests that the entire Cuddle and Coo team needs to be investigated. If Mattel is not forthcoming, the recourse is obvious.

Duped parents should sue Mattel into bankruptcy

Company officers evidently think that denial is the least damaging strategy for Mattel’s reputation and profitability. They need to be proved wrong. By covering up clear evidence that its product is being used as the vehicle for a jihadist plot against the children of its customers, Mattel has opened itself to tremendous liability. If they get sued into oblivion for the harm to children that their fraudulent denials are enabling, it will let other companies know that cover-up is not a good business decision.

Mattel did stop including the suspicious portion of the sound track in new production of their “Cuddle & Coo” doll, but instead of issuing a recall of the original dolls, the company is assuring the public that the warnings of Islamic intent have been investigated and been found to be without merit. That leaves untold thousands of these assault-toys preying on the minds of toddlers whose parents have been given false assurances, which continue to this day.

There is a sound that may resemble something close to the word “night, right, or light.” To avoid any potential misinterpretation, we have eliminated that segment of the sound file from future production.

Because the original sound track is compressed into a file that can be played through an inexpensive toy speaker, actual sounds may be imprecise or distorted.

We remain confident in the high quality standards of our Little Mommy Cuddle 'n Coo dolls.

By persisting in its dishonest denials, Mattel may have sealed its legal doom. Any lied-to parents out there want to get rich in the service of a most important cause?

The Memorial Project is also headed for legal trouble. The Mecca orientation of the giant Crescent of Embrace makes it a mihrab—the central feature around which every mosque is built—and it is unconstitutional to build a mosque as a national memorial.

Anti-vigilance

Like the memorial project, Mattel got duped by a stealth jihadist. In the middle of our ongoing hot and cold wars against Islamic supremacism, such things are going to happen. 9/11 exposed the nature of our terror war enemies: that they hide amongst us, pretending to be trustworthy friends while plotting acts of war. There is no shame in being the victim of Islamic deception.

What is inexcusable is to be willfully blind to Islamic plots once they are uncovered. Flight 93 is supposed to be the symbol of our woken vigilance, yet time and again we see this anti-spirit of Flight 93: a determined refusal to be vigilant, enabling even discovered plots to proceed.

All who have learned about the hidden Islamic messages in either the jihadist baby doll or the Flight 93 memorial, please learn about the other. Maybe together we can stop them both.

Just an update: Mattel has changed the soundfiles on the newer dolls. The local Wal-Mart in our area received them about a week or so before Christmas. No longer do they say, "Islam is the Light." Obviously, Mattel is being as quite as possible about this change.

However, I have one of the original dolls. They definitely, and quite clearly I might add, say, "Islam is the light" every minute or so.

NOTE to readers: I first posted on this here at Right Truth in early October here, please go read the comments section where parents and employees of stores all comment. You can also see several videos, and hear an audio clip. Also see my follow-up post here where parents fight back. Finally see the latest news release at the bottom of this post.

Hey anonymous, got any three year old neices you can give one of these dolls to? I'd like to see how long it takes your family members to hear what the doll is is saying and disembowel you for your perfidy.

Wow! the doll says "Islam is the light"! The horror!Big freaking deal. Last I checked we still had the freedom of speech in this country, so the closet Islamo-fascists at Mattel can have their doll say whatever and you can't do jack about it! If you don't like the doll, return it to the store and get your money back. jeez!

As hard as it may be for you to understand, my family doesn't consist of blood thirsty homicidal bigots. I suspect that your family however finds scalping or disembowelment as appropriate punishment for something as simple as giving a niece a doll. If that is the case, please call your local police department and turn them in. I'd rest a lot easier knowing they are off the streets!

This Islam talk seems to be highlighting a certain insecurity with your own faith. Maybe that stems from the fact that something as simple as "Islam is the light" strikes the fear of diminishing faith in our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ in your putrid heart. For a person claiming to be Christian, you sure don't act like one.

Liar. If you tried to indoctrinate a relative's toddler into Islam without the consent of the childs's parent, you would indeed get disowned, unless your family is a bunch of moral imbeciles, which I doubt. Left wing ideology is not a matter of family proclivity but is a matter of ideology, usually impressed through the public schools and at university.

I think it is time you stopped hiding behind anonymity and gave us your name. If you really believe that it is A-OKAY to indoctrinate other people's toddlers into Islam without their knowledge or consent, you should be willing to attach your name to that position.

Anonymity prompts people to say all kinds of assinine things that they would think twice about if people could see who said it.

Anyone want to see how stupid the comment I deleted was? Here it is in italics [my running commentary is interspersed]:

You are rather ignorant of the requirements of conversion to Islam sir, and let me inform you that hearing a doll supposedly utter those words does not indeed indoctrinate or qualify as religious instruction.

This moron thinks that the standard of whether a hidden Islamic message is improper is whether the indoctrinated two year-old is taught to recite the Sahada. Like everything else Idiot Man says, this makes absolutely no sense. Is he constitutionally that stupid? No. He is not TRYING to make sense. Just the opposite. He is desperately trying to AVOID making sense.

From the point of view of his goal of defending his position, making sense is the enemy, so he pulls one idiocy out of his ass after another, whatever dodge is available, no matter how obviously perverse.

Notice how he tries to pretend that it is ME who brought up “the requirements of conversion to Islam,” trying to deflect this lunacy off of himself. He KNOWS it is lunatic, but is perfectly okay with that, if he thinks he can turn it to effect.

If the league of evil Islamo-fascist terrorists got together, and came up with the idea of recording a distorted and inaudible message and playing it back through dolls as a means of combating the infidels, then we have nothing to worry about!

Pea-brain’s version of logic: If the Islamofascists are willing to plot against 2 year old girls, we have nothing to worry about! If a couple of free lance jihadies at Mattel take their opportunity to victimize 2 year olds, then in this idiot’s mind, we don’t have to worry about other free lance jihadies driving vans through crowds of college students, or jihad states building nuclear weapons, or al Qaeda acquiring bio weapons and dirty bombs.

Makes zero sense. But again, dumb-shit doesn’t care about that. All he cares is that he has found a dodge that he can throw out. If one jihadi is doing this, then all the jihadies in the world are somehow distracted and everything is copasetic. We’ve got ‘em right where we want ‘em, so just let ‘em have our 2 year olds!

That’s 2 for 2 on completely dishonest and illogical sentences. Since pea-brain is oblivious to whether he is making sense, it seems to him to be strategically effective to throw out as many idiocies as he can. He figures that any stupidities that go unanswered are victorious, and he knows that he can throw out moronic shit all day, so he figures he has a sure-fire winning strategy here. Somehow it does not dawn on these leftists that EVERY moronic thing they say just confirms how stupid they are. You aren’t winning anything you dumbshit. You are a self-lobotimized logical idiot.

My concern at the moment is more focused towards you and the sociopaths you associate with due to your constant lust for violence.

Right. I’M the sociopath.

This moron is unaware that there even IS such a thing as honest reason. He thinks entirely in terms of what he can say, no matter how nonsensical, to maintain his preferred conclusion, and he is good at it. He manages to get all sense and reason out of his mind. No spur of the moment concoction is too stupid for this idiot not to embrace with complete internal conviction. He is a pathological liar, TO HIMSELF, having no idea that it is even possible to think frontwards, following reason and evidence, instead of backwards, looking for any way to defend his presumptions.

THAT is what it means to be a sociopath. No regard for the truth means no regard for reality and no regard for real world harms, which remain out of sight, out of mind.

You are ignorant sir, and in your ignorance you have constricted a parallel universe in which the world has united to hide Islamic symbolism into every facet of your life.

I see an Islamic message where there IS an Islamic message, the same Islamic message that this pea-brain has been DEFENDING through multiple comments. Yet another demonstration of his complete absence of reason. His mind is free form delusion, looking for any line of attack or rebuttal, no matter how illogical.

The rest goes on in this vein (“the sad thing,” etcetera), talking as if he is concerned and moral when in fact his moral posturing is systematically dishonest. He doesn’t even know what it MEANS to think straight.

I occasionally prod these left-wing commentators to display this bizarre thought process of theirs, where every sentence demonstrates their obvious efforts to AVOID thinking straight. It is a valuable exercise because it puts on public display the same mindset that is at work with Mattel and the Memorial Project.

Those entities try to hide their truth avoidance. Documenting the truth avoidance of the Memorial Project has been like pulling teeth, so pea brain's florid public display of illogic is to some extent a worthwhile example. This value is diminished, however, if pea-brain isn’t going to identify himself. The example is left with incomplete documentation, and pea-brain as an individual goes unexposed. I don’t even have anything to call him but “pea-brain,” or “this idiot.”

He actually thinks that the reason I deleted his concatenation of illogic is because it “hit a little too close to home.” Dude, until you start thinking frontwards instead of backwards, you won’t ever get anywhere near ANY kind of home, not even your own. You are unhinged from reality, period. Your whole worldview is nothing but motivated illogic.

Anonymous reminds me of the people who critisize George Bush for sitting in that Florida classroom for 5 minutes after he was told about the Jihad going on in America, the morning of 9/11. The president had to do his job as soon as he was told about the attacks: his job is to protect America. He didn't have the luxury of knowing how many more attacks were coming, or what kind. So he had to think about whether this was just the beginning of the attacks, or the middle, or if most of it was already over. Would the west coast be attacked, also? Are the hijackings just the first wave of attacks? What else do the terrorists have planned? These things are very difficult to figure out (even when not being under intense pressure). And since the president outranked everybody else, he chose to think his thoughts with as little disruption as possible. He did not have the luxury of devoting his thoughts to anything that was not relevant to protecting America from further attack. As far as his own security, he deferred to the secret service, knowing that they are working as fast as they can to determine a safe path of travel away from the school (remember they had to expect to be ambushed at the school, or when leaving the school on any predictable route. What kind of weaponry would the terrorists use for the attack on the president's motorcade? Missiles? What kind of missiles? Are there bombs planted on the president's likely route? Surely that's the stuff the secret service was working on). The president knew that the secret service would do their job. The president's job was to make the big decisions about how to best protect the country that day, he couldn't afford to be distracted with his own safety. So he just sat there for a few minutes, thinking difficult thoughts, weighing options, going through worst-case scenarios and trade-offs. It doesn't matter whether he was still holding the book "My Pet Goat": the only thing that mattered was, is the presdent's full attention on the problem, working the problem at the high level that his office required? Answer: I think yes. So there are good reasons for the president sitting there for 5 minutes seemingly looking stupid.

Then somebody like Anonymous comes along and might comment on how stupid or incompetent the president was. Anonymous probably thinks that the overview that we all have today of 9/11 is something that we had that morning, as if people could know whether we are at the beginning of the attacks, or in the middle of the attacks, or at the end of the attacks, and what the nature of the attacks was, and where the next attacks would occur. None of that was known that morning. The only way to know such things in advance is to "connect the dots", which is easy to say, but difficult to do.

I suggest for Anonymous to read a chapter out of a book called "Islam and Terrorism", the chapter called "The Three Stages of Jihad". In this chapter, the author Mark Gabriel, former Muslim and former professor of Islamic history at the most prestigous Islamic university in the world (Al-Azhar) explains how the long term plan for Islamic supremacy works, beginning with the "weakened stage", moving into the "preparation stage", and finally arriving at the "Jihad stage". He illustrates this on Muhammed's own example. The text of that chapter is available to read here: http://74.125.47.132/search?q=cache:EXTdkAoUDVwJ:sribaba.fileave.com/MarkGabriel/3StagesJihadCh11.pdf

If anonymous would know these things, then he would know that deception, and "boiling the frog to death", are part of how the Islamic supremacy movement asserts itself and grows stronger. That includes such things as this talking doll sneaking in a pro-Islamic message: there is a larger pattern here, but you have to look for it. Anonymous would disagree: he sees no pattern, and sees no dots to connect.

I have never read such a load of C.R.A.P. Please can someone post a conspiracy theory about the FBI or CIA planning on arresting and water-boarding Alex Rawls. And please God (or Allah) let it be true.

The above commentator is a typical leftist. He can't even articulate what he is objecting to. All these idiots can do is spew.

For readers with brains, an update. The same "Islam is the light" recording has turned up in yet another baby toy for little girls: the Baby Pals computer game for Nintendo DS by Crave Entertainment (founded by Iranian immigrant Nima Taghavi). That game was released in 2007, so Taghavi's company would seem to be the source of the infection.

About Me

Here is a short bio I sent to press people covering the Flight 93 memorial debacle. My training is as an economist. I was in the PhD program in economics at Stanford until my research led me more towards moral theory and constitutional law, at which point I dropped the program and started working on my own. I was writing a book on republicanism (the system of liberty under law) for World Ahead Publishing when I discovered that the Flight 93 memorial was going to be a terrorist memorial mosque. World Ahead agreed to first publish my book about this rehijacking of Flight 93 (Crescent of Betrayal, temporarily available for free download at CrescentOfBetrayal.com). This is not my first venture into journalism. Over the years I have been a writer, opinions editor, and advisor for Stanford’s conservative campus newspaper The Stanford Review, and am currently on the Review’s board of directors.
